You've got to give it some time...
If it's only been 3 weeks than you're doing fine. I really doubt I get 50mg of protein and I'm 10 months out. Don't worry so much about how much you get in right now...just keep yourself hydrated. Sip the water/tea/whatever all day long.
Trust me - it will get better, but your body has been through a MAJOR surgery and it's trying to heal. I didn't eat any solid food for 2 months and during that time I maybe had one small box protein drink a day (20mg) if I could get it down.
You'll be fine, just try not to get discouraged and don't feel like you have to get a certain amount of protein in right now - do the best you can and be sure to take your vitamins and drink your water.
good luck.
